We are all big fans at our house of both traditional carols and modern Christmas songs, but for some reason the one song that seems to always get everyone singing is Shakin' Stevens Merry Christmas Everyone. :)

Walking in a Winter Wonderland & Fairytale of New York (Pogues & Kirsty McCall)
Little Drummer Boy, I don't mind who sings it as long as they sing it well. I have always liked this Christmas Song.

I'm glad I'm not the only one Emsxr, lol, the kids are already running around singing "Santa Claus is Coming To Town" at the top of their little voices - I love Christmas songs and Christmas movies...
I think Fairytale of New York, would have to be my favourite Christmas song, although "Merry Christmas Everyone" by Shaky is my guilty pleasure [para] - I can't help but sing and dance along to it, even though I know it's a bit cheesy!

Certainly a contradiction in posts. :lol:
I love Christmas, silent night, away in a manger, and we three kings.
I love loads of Christmas songs but the one that gets me all starry eyed and churned up inside has to be "White Christmas". aaaaahhhhhhhh

i know its a bit long but i love it
When this season gets to be too much - just read this poem...
Twas the night before Christmas, when all thru the abode
Only one creature was stirring, & she was cleaning the commode.
The children were finally sleeping, all snug in their beds,
while visions of Nintendo 64 & Barbie, flipped through their heads.
The dad was snoring in front of the TV,
with a half-constructed bicycle propped on his knee.
So only the mom heard the reindeer hooves clatter,
which made her sigh, "Now what is the matter?"
With toilet bowl brush still clutched in her hand,
She descended the stairs, & saw the old man.
He was covered with ashes & soot, which fell with a shrug,
"Oh great," muttered the mom, "Now I have to clean the rug."
"Ho Ho Ho!" cried Santa, "I'm glad you're awake."
"your gift was especially difficult to make."
"Thanks, Santa, but all I want is time alone."
"Exactly!" he chuckled, "So, I've made you a clone."
"A clone?" she muttered, "What good is that?"
"Run along, Santa, I've no time for chit chat."
Then out walked the clone - The mother's twin,
Same hair, same eyes, same double chin.
"She'll cook, she'll dust, she'll mop every mess.
You'll relax, take it easy, watch The Young & The Restless."
"Fantastic!" the mom cheered. "My dream has come true!"
"I'll shop, I'll read, I'll sleep a night through!"
From the room above, the youngest did fret.
"Mommy?! Come quickly, I'm scared & I'm wet."
The clone replied, "I'm coming, sweetheart."
"Hey," the mom smiled, "She sure knows her part."
The clone changed the small one & hummed her tune,
as she bundled the child in a blanket cocoon.
"You're the best mommy ever. I really love you."
The clone smiled & sighed, "And I love you, too."
The mom frowned & said, "Sorry, Santa, no deal."
That's my child's LOVE she is trying to steal."
Smiling wisely Santa said, "To me it is clear,
Only one loving mother is needed here."
The mom kissed her child & tucked her in bed.
"Thank You, Santa, for clearing my head.
I sometimes forget, it won't be very long,
when they'll be too old for my cradle & song."
The clock on the mantle began to chime.
Santa whispered to the clone, "It works every time."
With the clone by his side Santa said "Goodnight.
Merry Christmas, dear Mom, You will be all right."
Has to be A spaceman came a travelling by Chris de Burgh. Cant stand any other of his songs but this is a darn good tune.
Its nearly Christmas woo hoo,lots of toys for me to play with,all in the name of checking their safety for the kids of course!;)
